Hm I was seeing the same thing. Could just be an unfortunate choice of words but as all three games are available on Epic and that would definitely be a way for Epic to force people to try their platform... and let's just say I don't see IGN putting up much resistance if Epic is giving them cash to advertise their store, which we know is Epic's M.O...
and it's also the last month of the 6 months for 6 bucks offer.
Oh well I guess we'll find out. Maybe I should hold on to that Darksiders Genesis steam key after all.

"it's also the last month of the 6 months for 6 bucks offer."
Be interesting to see what happens here. The voucher in HB says it expires 4th June (would have been the 1st Friday), but now that it's moved to Tuesday 1st of June, we may get a 7th bundle at $6? Or will they just cancel the vouchers 3 days early?
Comment has been collapsed.
At the moment, yes, it's still a choice. But they have had non Steam keys before and well, I wouldn't put it past Epic or IGN to pull something like that.
I think if Humble has seen enough people "choose" Epic keys since they offer the choice, they wouldn't have a problem taking money to make an Epic exclusive, or at least have the big games on Epic only.
We'll find out next week. I'm just wondering why they are announcing the bundle all of a sudden. When they do leak it tends to be to soften the grounds for a bad bundle, and these are great games.

All three is wishlisted, although I'm fairly sure I already own Metro Exodus on Epic. Looks good :) (that means the other nine games will be garbage :D)
Comment has been collapsed.
Already own 2 out of 3 and I'd rather not get Metro Exodus without any DLC so yet another pause for me.
Actually, since I'm here a question for the SG savvy: if I make a GA for Darksider Genesis now and it ends before next Tuesday, is it still full CV or does it get retroactively on the reduced list? I have an extra key I bought during the last sale and HB is pissing me off.
Comment has been collapsed.
It's likely it'll get backdated to this announcement.
Comment has been collapsed.
Yeah I guess it makes sense. Oh well. Not that I care much about CV. I'm barely halfway through level 7 and I am not running after level 8. I'm just mad for buying yet again a game on sale that gets bundled less than 2 months later so I thought might as well get some CV out of it and get the bundle but I guess I'll pause.
Comment has been collapsed.
Humble's choice for the bigger games in the monthly tend to steer themselves toward games with lots of DLC to buy in the Humble Store. So yeah the bundle is cheap but sometimes if you only are interested in the bigger games, it's worth waiting for the complete/ultimate/gold edition to drop in price on sale.
Comment has been collapsed.
I see that all the games have been added to bundle list, but i remember before they only added them with the date when bundle started. Also long ago one of the support members explained to me that the only important thing is the start date of the GA for CV, not the end date :)
Comment has been collapsed.
I know, right? That DLC alone is worth the price difference!
I have been holding out on the base game despite good deals because buying the DLC separately would just be way more expensive but tbh it might even be worth it.
Besides there should be a good sale for the Metro Exodus - Gold Edition soon enough (usually happens a bit after the game is bundled on HB, right?) :))
Haha fingers crossed! and yeah it does.

Well i have hellpoint and ds genesis wishlisted. Metro i already have...

This is a great lineup already, but we all know why they're splurging on this one. It coincides with the fine print that only 5% goes to charity now. Granted the charities are of their own choosing and are likely all Dem money funneling operations. So the less to them, the better.
Comment has been collapsed.
I'll buck the trend and say I'm not interested in any of these. lol
Actually, Darksiders as an iso action game instead of TPS might actually work for me.
Good deal, I'll wait for the full reveal, hopefully they have some nice little indies, which is usually all I end up playing anyway.

If I have the classic plan for $12/mo how do I take advantage of the 3 for $9 without losing my $12 plan?
Comment has been collapsed.
You can't really. The offer is for new customers only.
With a high risk of getting your main account banned, you can of course make a new account and pause your main one for the next 3 months. I strongly suggest not doing this because Humble is known to ban accounts using a combination of same payment method / same ip / maybe same name for the payment and who knows what other factors.
Comment has been collapsed.
In my case DMs to https://twitter.com/humblesupport always gave 10x times boost in resolving my ticket.
Customers in Russia or in China are not eligible.
Sounds a bit racist. Since prices are the same as for other countries (with the exception of Humble's exchange rates - they don't match current exchange rates).
Comment has been collapsed.
They were actually pretty fast with their first response but unfortunately it didn't solve my issue :/
(The coupon didn't activate and I got charged the regular 12$)
Well, I hope I can still get the discount somehow since I usually don't receive those offers :)
Edit: Support was very nice and I got it now :3
Comment has been collapsed.
That isn't racist, i think it is very easy to explain.
In russia and china will be VPN's used.
And if i am not wrong, i am not 100% sure, are trade restrictions active against china, that force US companies to exclude them (or?). Maybe that are active against russia too (?)
Comment has been collapsed.
Yeah, agree with you. Maybe word "racist" is wrong. I'm far from politics, but sometimes I feel like US fighting for equal rights in the wrong way. For some reason "equal" don't apply to all groups/countries - they always want to make some group "special".
But anyways HB brings good stuff for everyone even with these restrictions.

finally can complete my metro collection lol, I was hoping it was gonna be the one last month when there was an april fools one for april.
Comment has been collapsed.
Metro has been on my wishlist since coming out. So that's cool.
Other two look good, but not my style. So not overly excited, but definitely seems cool. If other reveals will include something for my style I might just get this one.
Comment has been collapsed.
Well, I may got for it, if there are enough leftovers I can sell for 2 bucks.
12 - 4 "don't pause coupon" = 8, I need to resell for 2 bucks so I don't pay more than 6. They excluded me from the 6$/6month offer, I prefer to buy the games I want at full price than giving them a cent more. Yes, I can be stubborn when I feel like it.
Comment has been collapsed.
I don't want to be the guy, but selling the keys is against ToS and can get your HB account banned and the keys revoked.
Comment has been collapsed.
Thanks for the warning, I'm already aware of that. Since their TOS is illegal regarding EU laws, I just don't care :) But I will make sure there's no unrevealed key left in my account before doing it, of course.
Comment has been collapsed.
If that true then I'm in REAL trouble. Both I AND my RL friend want Metro Exodus and he won't buy the choice. He doesn't do those things so I end up trading for things.
This will NOT be a tradable game with what I have left.
Comment has been collapsed.
well to be honest i hope he does get the game but really i don't because if he is too tight to pay $9 for these games he can go without (i won't be wanting mine and i have honestly never liked the series - yet to see anything i would buy the bundle for myself)
i hope i did not say anything to upset you - i really do hope you end up with another copy
Comment has been collapsed.
You said nothing to upset me. Another reason he won't buy it because he just got a high end mac and Metro now supports Catalina. So him buying the bundle for that only is moot anyway.
I actually don't mind trading things for him anyway. I can get rid of some choice games I don't want that way and help him out at the same time.
Comment has been collapsed.
I really want to play these games in the package, I hope I can one day.

I already paid for the April Choice. Does anyone know if it's possible to cancel the current Choice subscription and then subscribe again using this new coupon (so the discount would start from the May Choice, rather than the April one)? It was possible for the previous coupon, so I wonder if it's possible this time too.
